PDAL’s community interacts through Mailing List, GitHub, Gitter and
IRC. Please feel welcome to ask questions and participate in all of the
venues. The Mailing List communication channel is for general questions,
development discussion, and feedback. The GitHub communication channel is
for development activities, bug reports, and testing. The IRC and Gitter
channels are for real-time chat activities such as meetings and interactive
debugging sessions.

Visit http://github.com/PDAL/PDAL to file issues you might be having with the
software. GitHub is also where you can obtain a current development version of the
software in the git revision control system. The PDAL project is eager to
take contributions in all forms, and we welcome those who are willing to roll
up their sleeves and start filing tickets, pushing code, generating builds, and
answering questions.

Development provides more information on how the PDAL software
development activities operate.

Some PDAL developers are active on Gitter and you can use that mechanism
for asking questions and interacting with the developers in a mode that is
similar to IRC. Gitter uses your GitHub credentials for access, so
you will need an account to get started.

You can find some PDAL developers on IRC on #pdal at Freenode. This mechanism
is usually reserved for active meetings and other outreach with the community.
The Mailing List and GitHub avenues are going to be more productive
communication channels in most situations.
